FREE COAL.

We see that the Central Labor Union of
New York, in response to the agitation of
the subject in the local unions, has fully
considered and referred to its law commit
tee to prepare petition 10 Congress on the
following preamble and resolutions:
WHEREAS, The price of coal has been
raistd TO exorbitant rates by the coal com.
elnaiions, while the wages Of the miners in
= nsvlyania have been reduced TO starva.
ton rates, and the demands of the men for
living wages are used MS an excuse for ex.
tortlng from the consumers of this necessary
OF life; therefore, be it
Resolved, That we demand that Congress
admit coal from the British provinces free
oi duty MS small degree of protection TO
tie consumers against the plan of the coal
munopolists TO force the entire community
To pay dividends upon their enormously
natered stock, which is used as a pretext TO
levy an unjust tribute upon the community.
This is the right kind OF talk, strong talk
ia the right direction aud which all can un.
derstand. Protection is demanded, but il is
The right kind of protection; it is protection
for the consumers-that kind Of protection
which enables the head of a family to buy

protection also against combinations OF coal
operators, who put up the price OF coal and

RANDOLPH CaUUROHILL.
He Gives the English Navy a Had
Name.

LONDON, June 3.-At a meeting at
Wolverhampton this evening Lord Ran
dolph Churchill advised the Unionists
to make solid stand, and show Glad
stone that they are as determined as
himself in the matter of the Irish ques-
tion. When Parliament reassembles
strong measures ought to be adopted to
prevent the Crimes Bill being amended
until it became useless. Returning to
this question of economy, be condemned
the expenditures for the Army and
Navy, and said under the present sys.
tenn the country was travelling at racing
speed along the road leading to utter
and irretrievable ruin. In the
event of war, England might, after
maddening delay and pouring out
money like water put l5O 600 men in the
field.
Doubtless England had a very power
full fleet on paper, but not single fort
ress of stragetic importance throughout
the empire properly armed and pro sis.
ioned, and many entirely unarmsd and
unprovisioned. Every department of
the military and naval service was sup
piled with defective weapons, despite
the waste and expenditure. There was
not at home transportation facilities for
10000. Lord Randolph then related
several anecdotes to illustrate the truth
of his statements, depicting the helpless
condition of the fleet after bombarding
Alexandria and Misaha, and the condi-
tion of the ordnance and ammunition in
the Khartoum expedition. He heard
that in 1886 the ordnance committee de.
signed several forty three. ton guns and
asked Armstrong; to construct fifteen
of them. Armstrong; protested that the
designs were bad, but they were told to
mind their business and make the guns.
When they were made Captain Noblv
refused to send them to sea, saying thew
would burst. He was also told to mind
his ewn business. Four of the guns
were put aboard the Collingwood and
on the second round of firing with half
cartridges, one of them burst and the
whole were then condemned alta loss of
G200, 1000.
Lord Randolph made numerous other
revelations as to the inefficiency and
badness of the designs for new vessel,
for the fleet. He said: s'Perhaps yo,

ing public money, against which dasfe,

A FALSE ALARM
Sends the Fire Department im All
Directions.

Some man called at Mr.. Welsh's
house where the key to box No. 1913 at
Macy street covered bridge is kept, last
night about eleven o'clock and told Mr..
Welsh that there was fire near by. Mr..
Welsh turned in the alarm and the re.
suit showed the advantage of the Rich.
mond fire alarm system. The alarm
reached No. 2 engine house on Main
street near First all right, and also the
Morris Vineyard hose house, but ii was
all wrong everywhere else. 1t started
the mounted police off to District No. IL
at the Morris Vineyard. The hook and
ladder went to No. "a, corner of Mayo
and Los Angeles street.. Chief Moore
was sent to No. 81. New High and
Short streets. No. 3 went to Sonora
Town, and No. to the Plaza. This
would have been nice fix for the de.
partment to have been in if there had
been fire, but luckily the man who
wakened Mr.. Welsh must have imagined
there was fire, for none could be found
by Chief Moore after searching the neigh
borhood from which the alarm was
turned in. after driving about for
some time in trying to find the right
district.

THE GAME TODAY.
The Benedicts VIII Oppose The
Unmarried Men.

At Sixth street park this afternoon,
one of the most interesting baseball
games ever played in Los Angeles will
take place. The unmarried business
men of the city challenged the young
,married men of the city to match
game of baseball, the proceeds to go to
the "Girls Home" At first it was
thought to make it game for fun, but
the managers on each side warmed up to
the occasion and now it will be an exhi-
bition of great skill and there is not
man in either nine who has not had
great experience on the old time diamond
field, and who has not been quietly get.
ting himself into trim for the coming
game. There is just enough feeling de-
veloped between the married and un.
married men to insure a decidedly in
teresting game, and the boys are wager
| ing numerous neckties, hats, etc., on
the final resnlt. The grand stand has
been nicely arranged for the accommo-
dation of the ladies and their escorts,
and in all other ways the comfort of the
great crowd is provided for.
The following are the mines that will
cross bats to-day:

JUDICIAL SUSPICION.
Dist. Attorney of New York AL
Ieges Bribe d Jurors.

New YORK, June 3.-When court
opened this morning for the trial, there
were only eleven jurors in the box.
District Attorney MARITIME to-day corrob-
Grated the statement that attempts had
been made by somebody to ''6x" the
Jurors in this case, and such was his rea-
son for excusing McLewee and Caldwell
from service. He also corroborated the
report of an attempt to corrupt Rufel,
who was drawn on the first panel. The
attorney for Sharp insisted on MARITIME
placing proofs of his charges formally be.
fore the Court. In response to this de-
mand, MARITIME then gave details of the
attempt to influence Juror Smith. ''The
matter, MARITIME said. chad been traced
back TO Mr.. Lynch who is great friend
of Sharp's." The District Attorney then
instanced other cases. In conclusion,
MARITIME said:
INTENTION OF DISTRICT ATTORNEY.
81 do not charge these improper acts
upon the defendant or any counsel, but
am ready to submit proofs and have
witnesses brought into court and have
their testimony recorded upJer oath. l
have no idea that Counsel had any idea
of these transactions, but they came to
me in my official capacity and it was my
duty to consider them.n The Court or.
dered that all persons named by MARITIME

appear in court on Monday morning,

PITTsBURG, June 3.-Members of the
Knights of Labor Executive Board, who
have been investigating the strike ia the
Coke region, have forwarded their re-
port to the General Board. They find
that the strike is illegal and recommend
that all their members so engaged re-
turn to their work; and they also sus-
tain the umpire in his award.
They make no peremptory order for
them to return to their work, but say
that all the Knights of Labor must
abide by their decision and wait until
some future conference to secure the ad-
vance in wages to which they are en-
titled. The trouble is attributed to
the fact that they consist of two dis
trict organizations in that region and
concert of action is almost impossible.
1t is believed that the Knights of Labor
men will go to work again.

ACCIDENT AT VIRGINIA.
Cage Falls lea the sharon smart
Of the ChOlIar.

| VIRGINIA CITY, New, June 3.-An
accident occurred at the Chollar mine
this morning whereby one man was
killed and three seriously injured. The
engineer at the Sharon shaft had hoisted
some miners on the Ii o'clock shift to
the tunnel level through the north COM
partment shaft. The cage in the north
compartment had stuck in the guides
and he was engaged in taking up the
slack of the cable.
At that moment the cage in the south
compartment began descending rapidly.
The engineer immediately applied the
full force of the brake, but the headway
of the descending cage could not be en-.
tirely checked before it struck the bot.
tom of the shaft with great force.
Other men immediately descended |
through the north compartment and |
found Richard Pascoe. NJ. r. McDon-
aid, Luke Quinlan and John McCabe
piled in a promiscuous heap in the bot
tom of the south compartment.
Pascoe vomited blood, indicating that
he had been injured internally. He was
to his lodgings, where he died
4 few hours after the accident. None of
the miners limbs were broken, and it is
thought that the three injured men will

A CHINAMAN,s OUTRAGE.
Thief Kills His DiscOverer with
an Axe.


LEMooRE, CAL, June 3.-For the last
three weeks the proprietors of the stores
and laundries in our Chinatown have
been missing small articles from their es-
tablishments, and although strict
watch has been kept the thief was not
detected until to-day, when about 2
P. NJ. as All Kee, an employee in one of
the laundries. was going from the iron
ing department to the cellar, he diseov-
cred Chinaman named All Hop in the
act of concealing articles in his shirt
bosom. All Kee Immediately accused
All Hop of being the mysterious thief
and gave the alarm to his fellow work.
men. All Hop seeing he was discovered
and not having any chance to escape,
picked up stone jar and with it dealt
All Kee blow ON the head, splitting
his skull and knocking him insensible on
the floor. Hop then tried to beat his
unfortunate victims head to jelly, but
was prevented by the proprietor of the
laundry, who with the assistance of
other Cinnamon present, disarmed the
would-be murderer and drove him from
the room. All Hop was then arrested
by Constable Young before he had time
to escape and is now in the lookup.

dent and Attorney General denies the
right of the President to remove him.
and claims that such removal can be
effected only for cause, and then by the
Supreme Court of the District after due
notice. He also requests that the order
of removal be revoked and the case be
referred to the Court named
for the trial. The Attorney
General in his reply holds
this method of appointing aud removing
Justices of the Peace was changed by
subsequent enactment, and that the
President acted wholly in accordance
with law. 1t is probable that the courts
will have to settle the matter.

CONSERVATION prevails in this city on ac.
count of a panic on Wednesday in the

fire was so Insignificant that had the in.
